Lab Track: I’m Cured

Labber Anne spotted this one, and it might just be my favorite lab track of all time. Written by comedy writers Stephen Levinson, Joel Moss Levinson, and Rob Kutner along with singer-songwriter Aimee Mann and performed in a video that stars Aimee Mann, David Wain, and Dave Foley (these names, you guys! How can it not be good?), this track is a break-up song from the common-cold virus to the scientist who found its cure. By drinking random lab chemicals until he didn’t have a cold anymore. Because that is how these things are done.

But wait! Not only is this song hilarious, it also supports a good cause. Buy the single on iTunes, and your money goes to support children in Kenya and El Salvador through OneKid OneWorld.
